Source Verification and Updates Policy
This policy explains how we manually check airport links, phone numbers, addresses, maps, parking pages, terminal information and official travel resources before and after publication.
Manual source verification matters
Airport information is useful only when it is current enough to help a traveller make better decisions. A wrong parking link, outdated terminal note, old rental-car address or incorrect airport map can waste time and create stress. That is why our publishing workflow gives strong priority to official airport and government sources, then applies human review before the final guide is published.
We do not claim that every airport detail will remain unchanged after publication. Airports are operational environments. They update parking lots, change pick-up zones, move airline counters, rename terminals, adjust maps, revise shuttle operations and publish temporary construction instructions. Our responsibility is to check carefully, explain clearly and update pages when credible corrections are found.
Sources we prefer
| Airport-guide topic | Primary official source we prefer | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Airport code and airport identity | FAA airport resources, official airport site, airline/airport documentation | Airport names, codes and facility details can change, and unofficial directories may lag behind. |
| Terminals, gates and check-in areas | Official airport terminal pages, airport maps, airline pages | Terminal assignments and check-in counters can change by airline, route, season, construction or operational need. |
| Parking, rental cars and ground transport | Official airport parking pages, official airport maps, local transit/transportation pages | Rates, lots, shuttle routes and pick-up areas may change without notice. |
| Security and passenger rules | TSA and official airport security pages | Final checkpoint decisions and permitted-item rules must come from TSA and airport/airline instructions. |
| Accessibility and disability travel | U.S. DOT, official airport accessibility pages, airline assistance pages | Accessible travel often depends on airline, airport, terminal and passenger-specific needs. |
Verification workflow
Collect official airport, FAA, TSA, DOT, transit and airline sources.
Check whether links open and match the airport/topic being covered.
Review phone numbers, addresses, maps, parking pages and service notes.
Publish with clear official-source links and change-risk warnings.
How updates are handled
When a reader reports a changed detail, our team checks the report against official or high-trust sources. If the update is confirmed, the page may be revised. If the source is unclear, we may add a note telling users to verify directly with the airport or airline. If a topic is highly time-sensitive, we avoid making strong claims and direct users to the official live resource.
Broken official links, changed airport web pages, new terminal maps, revised parking pages, changed shuttle routes, accessibility page updates and airport contact changes.
Live gate assignments, real-time delays, exact security wait times, parking availability, airline disruptions, weather events, live road closures or same-day operational changes.
